I am not sure, but generally H does only replacements, meaning they restore the original state of the item when you purchased it. I don’t think they alter an item by using a different colour.
Good luck trying! Fingers crossed!

So thank you all for the birthday wishes and, without further ado, let me present to you my new Sac À Dépêches Light 37 Noir Togo with brushed palladium hardware, alongside Last Night 01 in prune/gris/bubblegum.

And what a lovely bag it is too - super lightweight, really classic yet wonderfully contemporary. It had it's first day out today and has been a pleasure. And despite being very thin, I managed to fit plenty when necessary, whilst also being easy to carry under the arm when both arms are needed. The sheer expanses of Togo with very little detailing really are a joy for the senses.

I had a choice of the noir/brushed palladium and bleu nuit with inlaid leather onto the front of the hardware. I eventually decided noir was a little more classic and I liked the hardware making an appearance, without being too obtrusive in the brushed finish. Plus... I have a little something blue on horizon for this semester, so thought it best not compete!

Comparing the SAD Light to the CityHall that we've recently been discussing, this is a more carefree, less formal bag, but one that is less capacious and perhaps a little more showy than the very discreet CityHall. with the more obvious hardware, even if the satchel design is more classic. Both are beautiful bags, but for subtly different uses and occasions.

I am OBSESSED with the SaD light. I love brushed HW. That bag is next on my list. The US has not seen many of them yet.

Congrats!

congratulations for acquiring this black beauty and the lovely scarf that goes with it! the black SaD Light is such a classic yet not too stiff briefcase for everyday. I dream of having one someday, maybe in a dark green something something :p

I must say I am pretty jealous at your collection now. you seem to have a bag for every occasion. I hope you find the time someday to photograph a "family" picture :D

enjoy and wear in good health! happy birthday again!

It truly is a new classic in my eyes, simplifying the slightly 'busy' accordion feeling of the original but yet feels totally H!

Hahaha! Thank you so much. To think it's only just over 2 years ago I wondered into the Royal Exchange boutique looking for a Steve to replace my Tumi leather brief that started falling apart after only 6 months, I've come a long, long way down the slippery slope.

Every time I tell myself I don't need anything else, the craftsmanship, beauty and exquisite leathers call my name and I find an excuse to need something new.

I must try and set up a little 'family gathering', maybe best when DH isn't around, for fear of being asked quite when I intend to use everything as they can't all be used at once...

I don’t have the answer but would love to see more pics of your well used briefcase!

Hey gentleman!

I have a quick question: do any of you own the citizen twill wallet or one of the long wallets? I purchased a Pochette Voyage from LV and thinking of returning it and getting an Hermes long wallet instead.
